Chomei chuckled amidst a daze, saying, "Don't tell me you're going to die to prove it to me?"
Sarada didn't reply, nor did she need to. She simply leaned there, embodying everything.
She was already dying. The flames outside were consuming everything, including Sarada's body.
She really was dying to show the Seven-Tails!
Chomei: 6
Although I can indeed continue to exist, I feel inexplicably sad.
It watched Sarada's demise, like a mirage scattered by the wind. Everything was an unreal illusion. This scene was indeed like a drama to Chomei.
It seemed to understand why Gyūki chose to accompany Killer B, why the proud Kurama was willing to stay within Naruto.
At this moment, this absurd thought also arose in it. It wanted to stay within this human and help her complete her revenge!
"Hey, human, I still don't know your name!" Chomei snorted at Sarada.
Sarada indifferently raised her head, gazing at the Seven-Tails as if saying, Are you kidding me?
Does it matter? Of course, it matters!
"Hey, human, you are one of the few existences in my long life that can restrain me. Now that you are about to die, at least let me know who is so bold, right?"
"Uchiha, Sarada," she said softly.
Chomei was stunned. The name seemed familiar. "As expected of the evil Uchiha. I just don't know where this monster came from, from a clan that has already been wiped out."
After a long sigh, Chomei said, "After you die, I will help you take revenge. It won't be in vain.
After all, you are my current... companion, right?"
"..." Sarada didn't react.
Chomei frowned slightly. The countdown to her life seemed so long, representing a flower about to wither, perhaps to turn into spring mud.
Suddenly, Sarada asked in confusion, "Why does everyone curse the Uchiha? What exactly did my clan do?"
Chomei, if you ask that, I'll have to start my long speech, provided you can live to hear me finish.
Considering Sarada's condition, Chomei only picked the most recent conflict caused by a member of the Uchiha clan.
"It's that Sasuke from Konoha. Although he has turned over a new leaf now, before that, that kid single-handedly restrained all nine of us Tailed Beasts, attempting to create a controllable world!"
Sarada: ?!
"You're saying my father was an enemy of the Shinobi World?"
Sarada was stunned, and Chomei was also stunned.
"Wait, you're saying Sasuke Uchiha is your father?"
Sarada nodded blankly, after all, saying these things now was meaningless.
"??!!!" Chomei was shocked. "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
"..."
Seeing Sarada like this, Chomei no longer held any hope of escaping. If she was really Sasuke's child, then if he knew that it had stood by and watched her die, he would probably beat it to death!
"Damn it, Uchiha's trickster, don't die! You still have to take revenge!!"
Chomei roared at Sarada, while recklessly pouring out Chakra, breaking through the barrier of the seal, wanting to protect Sarada's body.
Maybe... there's still time, right?
Sarada was dumbfounded. "Don't you hate the Uchiha? Don't you want freedom? Why do you want to save me now?"
"..."
Chomei was about to collapse. "Grandma, don't say that. It's not like I could help because I was sealed. Stop giving up. Isn't living good?"
A strong surge of Chakra gushed out of the cage, enveloping Sarada's "heart and soul" like an ocean, stabilizing her condition.
Unfortunately, the physical burns were too severe. Most of her body had already been carbonized. Strangely, Sarada just hadn't died yet.
"Your body is already ruined, how are you still not dead?" Chomei was dumbfounded.
If you think this book is good, remember to add it to your bookshelf so you don't lose it next time.
Sarada was also stunned. Yes, she could no longer feel the state of her body. Logically, she should have returned to the Yellow Springs long ago. Why was she still sitting here perfectly fine?
Chomei: As expected of the Uchiha clan, they are just heaven-defying!
"My Mangekyō's eye technique before was 'Immortality.' Maybe that effect is still preserved," Sarada pondered for a long time, giving a relatively possible explanation.
"Bullshit, how is immortality possible?" Chomei couldn't help but complain, "Damn it, the eyes are gone, how can there still be an eye technique residing?"
The mental space fell silent for a moment. Sarada continued to sit, knowing that she could live a little longer, but she didn't think there could be a miracle.
"Could it be your partner, who left you a life-saving ability?" Chomei naturally wouldn't forget the human who crippled it in one move.
At the same time, it was also very puzzled as to why Sasuke's child would have something to do with another Uchiha's survivor.
"He just... treated me as a bargaining chip," Sarada sighed. "He kidnapped me only to force Father and the Hokage to submit."
"I see!" Chomei instantly understood everything.
At the same time, it coughed awkwardly. Not only had it misunderstood Sarada's identity, but it had also hurled insults at her and refused to help when she was in danger...
A large amount of Chakra was being absorbed by Sarada, as if she were swimming in an ocean of Chakra, with Chakra entering every pore of her body.
"You seem to be... gradually recovering? But, why?" Chomei wondered. Could it be that my Chakra is so amazing?
Isn't this even better than Kurama's Mystical Palm Technique plus? Its effect is only to heal injuries, how can it be better than my Chakra?
After all, Naruto's right hand is still a prosthetic...
As Sarada recovered to a certain extent, a strange red light lit up in her left eye, and the pattern of the Mangekyō was clearly visible.
Chomei: "Hey, hey, this is no longer within the scope of healing, right? This is simply bringing someone back from the dead!"
——Other Shore Mark!
Sarada's dōjutsu was released again, and her body, which had been turned into charcoal on the outside, was actually repairing at a visible rate.
Chomei: This is outrageous!
It was a pity, though, that while her left Mangekyō was able to recover, the Single Tomoe in her right eye had disappeared without a trace.
Although her eyes had returned to black pupils, she was still unable to activate the Sharingan.
Some things, once lost, must be found. Sarada thought to herself.
Honestly, she didn't expect the power of her 'Other Shore Mark' to be so heaven-defying. Not only could it continue to maintain the effect of 'immortality' by residing within her body, but it could also forcibly regenerate her!
Chomei: So everything I said and did before was all for nothing, right?
You tricked me!!!
As if sensing the dissatisfaction emanating from Chomei, Sarada comforted, "You said we're friends, and now I need your power, good friend!"
"..." Looking at Sarada's sincere eyes, Chomei was speechless. Had it been tricked or deceived?
At this moment, even the seal was beginning to loosen!
Chomei sensed the weakening of the sealing technique and was immediately stunned. Although it vaguely knew that it could release more power after reaching an understanding with its Jinchuriki, wasn't this a little too smooth?
Oh well. Chomei chose to accept its fate.
"Should we report everything here to Naruto? Perhaps it would be better to solve your troubles after they arrive."
Chomei asked.
Sarada hesitated for a moment before replying, "No need. I think I may still have to rely on him to grow faster in the future."
"That human who sealed me and kidnapped you?"
"Yes."
In reality, Sarada opened her eyes, her Mangekyō and black pupils gazing at the scene. The flames had not completely died out, and billowing black smoke rose straight into the sky.
They hadn't gone far, or rather, Sarada hadn't wasted much time in her mindscape.
It was just that... her clothes had all been burned away. Although she hadn't died... she had no choice but to go and 'buy' a new set of clothes to wear.
Sarada only had a momentary sense of the other Mangekyō that had been taken away and was being held by the enemy before it disappeared without a trace.
Following this direction, Sarada ran towards the outside of the village as quickly as possible. The enemy had obviously fled far away from the scene to another town or village, which would undoubtedly cause Sarada a lot of trouble.
Perhaps her eye would be sold off.
